Brandon Scherff Scouting Report

While most in the media recognized Michigan's Taylor Lewan as the elite blocker in the Big Ten Conference, analysts were in consensus that it was actually the underrated Hawkeye who had the best performance for any left tackle in the league last season. He's equally effective as a drive blocker as he is in pass protection. His 5.09 speed is immediately noticed with his ease of movement and balance attacking edge rushers and riding his opponent away from the pocket. He has tight end-like knee bend and field awareness as a down-field blocker and operating in the trenches, he is well-versed with his hand placement, along with doing an excellent job of delivering a strong punch to rock defenders back on their heels. He is also savvy enough to know how to grab on to his man's jersey without being penalized.
